The old man on the bed remained unconscious and didn’t react to Gwendolyn’s words.

Of course, Gwendolyn knew her father wouldn’t be able to hear her, let alone respond to her question.

She believed Kieran’s diagnosis was correct, but still, she found it hard to accept and wanted to confirm her father’s condition herself.
